Osmolarity=osmole of the solute/litres of the solution ionic equation for dissociation of CaCl2 is CaCl2--->Ca2+ +2Cl- total osmoles for reaction are 1(Ca2+) + 2(Cl-)= 3 osmoles therefore
0.50 moles of CaCl2 x 3 osmoles/ 1mole of CaCl2 = 1.5osmoles osmolarity=1.5 /1.0 L=1.5 osmol/l
A warming climate can cause seawater to expand and ice over land to melt, both of which can cause a rise in sea level. Storm surge on a Louisiana highway shows the effects of rising sea levels. Many people are interested in climate change and how a changing climate will affect the ocean.
